To detect the zero-crossing a zener LED (actually a diode and 3 LEDs) converts the AC waveform in to a square wave, which is passed in to an optoisolator (e.g. the CNY17-3) before being passed to the microcontroller. | To detect the zero-crossing a zener LED (actually a diode and 3 LEDs) converts the AC waveform in to a square wave, which is passed in to an optoisolator (e.g. the CNY17-3) before being passed to the microcontroller. | ||
An otpocoupler (e.g. the K3020P) and TRIAC (e.g. BTB06-600T) is used to switch the circuit output. | |||
